What runs through your head when you see our national flag besides what we did learn in school that; black represents the people of Kenya. Red represents the blood shed in the fight for independence. Green represents the fertility of the land. White represents peace. The shield of the warrior represents Kenya's pride and tradition?
Does it ever occur to you that the flag is a sign that you are a free being?That you are free of any colony and that you can do anything you feel right as long as you do not suppress another man's right to freedom?
Have you ever taken time to go through the words of our National anthem?
The National Anthem
| Kiswahili | English | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

| Ee Mungu nguvu yetu Ilete baraka kwetu Haki iwe ngao na mlinzi Natukae na undugu Amani na uhuru Raha tupate na ustawi. |
O God of all creation Bless this our land and nation Justice be our shield and defender May we dwell in unity Peace and liberty Plenty be found within our borders. |

| Amkeni ndugu zetu Tufanye sote bidii Nasi tujitoe kwa nguvu Nchi yetu ya Kenya Tunayoipenda Tuwe tayari kuilinda |
Let one and all arise With hearts both strong and true Service be our earnest endeavour And our homeland of Kenya Heritage of splendour Firm may we stand to defend. | |||||

| Natujenge taifa letu Ee, ndio wajibu wetu Kenya istahili heshima Tuungane mikono Pamoja kazini Kila siku tuwe na shukrani |
Let all with one accord In common bond united Build this our nation together And the glory of Kenya The fruit of our labour Fill every heart with thanksgiving. Does it figure to you that anytime you sing our national anthem you actualy make a prayer to God? Let us not be so ignorant let us have pride in our country,flag and the National anthem at all times. whether we have worn or lost at peace or at war Kenya is still ours. |
